Post or Ask something here in 'Mill Hill' Mill Hill Seeking Alan JohnsonI have been trying to locate the last missing piece of my family tree....My father-in-law recently passed away and his name was Kevin John Johnson both he and his brother the above named Alan were orphans. Alan was born in 1942 and was admitted to St Vincent's Mill Hill in 1947. He had spend his early years at St Mary's Convent, Walthamstowe in the Nursery. He stayed at St Vincent's until he was 11 years old until 1953 and transferred to St Charles Orphanage, Brentford. His mother was Maud Johnson I am hoping that Alan or anyone who knows of Alan reads this and gets in touch with me...Alan you have two sisters, Freda who is 80 years old and Mary who is 86....time is definately running out...so I hope someone who can help comes forwards. If you were in St Vincent's at the time and knew of Alan Johnson or of both Brothers at St Charles please do do get in touch.

Mill Hill St Vincents 1935Hi, my name is Tracie Loveridge and i am desperately trying to find any records for my dad who was at this orphanage in 1935, unclear for how long, he was about 3 and had a brother who was about 2, their names were Derek and David (Dave) Avenell. My dad is very very poorly and as the only family history i have is his mothers name, no father or her date of birth etc ANY information i can gain from ANY records would be a fantastic final chapter in my dear dad's life. If anyone either remembers my dad Derek or knows where i might find some records i would be soooo grateful!

 | Mill Hill St. Vincents Childrens Home. Does anyone remember st. vincents childrens home. Is it still open. I was there in the early to mid 1960's along with my brother. We spent about 18 months there. I remember going to Dimchurch for a two week holiday in the summer the whole home went and we stayed in a big camp place just over the road from the beach. We also had a visit from the Blue Peter presenters of the day and appered on said programme. I have a photo of some of us just after we took first holy communion so i must of been about seven.

Mill Hill Mill Hill WaitroseThe Waitrose store in Mill Hill is a joke. I went in this morning - as usual there was just one check out manned. The shelves were half empty, evidently they were short supplied last night. If the current management team are unable to run this store efficiently i.e. have sufficient numbers of check out staff available, then I suggest Waitrose gets rid of them all and starts all over again. Oh, and dont bother bringing this to the attention of Waitrose Head Office, they ignore you Post reply -->London Mill Hill 23 Aug Should we remove this post ?

You have the advantage of being a 5 minute walk away or the disadvantage of all the traffic from parents picking up and dropping off in the mornings and afternoon. They have to use a one-way system to cater for all the trafiic during these times. Otherwise it's okay! Post reply -->London Mill Hill 19 Feb Should we remove this post ?
